QWERTY Do you use all your fingers?

I type with both hands but not quite the correct way. I taught myself and just could never get it right. I only use my right pinky for the shift key no matter which other key I'm pressing and I suck at the numbers on top. But I type pretty fast. I always amaze my kids at how I can type and not look at the screen or the keyboard. It cracks them up every time.

of course, i could never type this fast by peck & hunt method! my only problem is numbers/symbols on the top row... i've never been fast with those. otherwise, my hands are at the homerow! i type about 70 wpm which i think is pretty good.

I use all of my fingers. I cant type any other way. Last time i did a typing test i get anywhere between 80 to 100 wpm. I used to work in a law office so i had to be able to keep up with the people on the other end of the phone lol. But when i type that fast i make a few mistakes so i use spell check alot haha
